Chapter 529
Su Jinyao thought about it and left a redemption ticket of three thousand taels of silver to Mobei before, she didn't show up or worry about it, but she spent a lot of money.
Su Jinyao asked again: "Then won't Brother Ma come back today?" ”
The shopkeeper nodded and said, "According to this hour, it is estimated that he will not come back." Shall I send someone to find the Martha boss now, or will you go back to the city to find him?" ”
Su Jinyao thought about it and said, "There's no need to look for him, I have to go back anyway." But now you have someone clear the bathhouse, change the water again, and I'm going to take a bath." ”
"Okay. Wait a minute, I'll tell someone to do it right away. "The shopkeeper seems to have a lot of power here, too. It is estimated that when Ma Liu is not there, he will be able to call the shots of some things.
The shopkeeper asked someone to go to the bathhouse to clear the scene, and at the same time asked the guy to send a lot of snacks over, so that Su Jinyao could wait while eating.
Su Jinyao took two plates of dim sum and handed them to A-Ning, asking her to sit aside and eat some too. Then he didn't say a word to the shopkeeper.
Let's talk about the situation of the car and horse shop, ask Ma Liu and his family about the situation, and also ask the guys here what they usually do.
After some small talk, the shopkeeper also understood that although this big proprietor did not show up, he still knew a lot about business matters, and he was very interested in them.
After a while, the young man who practiced the family came to report that the bathhouse had been cleaned up. The pool has been brushed and cleaned, and the hot water has been put back on, please ask Su Jinyao to come over.
Su Jinyao thanked her and took A-Ning over.
Although A-Ning still looked like a waiter, he was stunned when he came to this big bathhouse. She really didn't expect that there was such a big place for bathing.
Su Jinyao smiled and said, "You don't usually have a comfortable time, so now relax and take a good bath." You go to the room next door to me, and I'll call you again if there's something to do. ”
At first, A-Ning didn't agree, but Su Jinyao said: "You also know that I never have to be served when I take a bath." Either you're standing at the door, or you're going to take a bath next door. ”
In this way, A-Ning ran to the next door. As for how shocked she was to go into the water to take a bath, Su Jinyao didn't know.
Anyway, she is tired from traveling these days, so she can take a comfortable bath and change into clothes to go back to the city. This is also the day she returns to her parents' house, and she has to be comfortable at home for a few days.
It's comfortable to wash, and it's getting dark. Su Jinyao left her and A-Ning's horses in this carriage and horse shop, and asked the shopkeeper to send her back.
The practice of not allowing horses in Anji City is still there, and if Su Jinyao takes out the palace card, she can also break this rule.
But she came back as "Jin Yao", not with the title of "Crown Princess", so it is better to have more than one thing.
Back in Anji City, Su Jinyao did not go directly to Jasmine Garden or to Su's house, but followed the route she took for the first time to enter the city, first went to the market, and then went around to the Red Sleeve Fang.
At this time, the red sleeve workshop is already full of lights, colorful silk fluttering, warblers and swallows. It doesn't seem to have changed anything because of Qi Niang's departure, and it is still the most lively flower building in Anji City.
Su Jinyao stood here for a while, and no one noticed her. Perhaps it is also because she is dressed differently now, her hairstyle has changed, and here are all the girls who are busy greeting guests, and her silence is even more inconspicuous.
Instead, A-Ning shouted: "Master, go back." ”
Su Jinyao smiled and said, "It's okay, this kind of place is not as bad as you think." I also have some friendship with the sisters here, but at this time they are all busy, so it is inconvenient for me to come over. ”
After speaking, Su Jinyao turned around and left, walked to the side of the cyclamen residence and looked again, and then walked in the direction of Ma Liujia.
Passing by the big shop, Su Jinyao bought a few snacks and things for the children to eat, wear, and play. Then he picked out a few pieces of jewelry for Xiaoying at a jewelry shop.
When I came to the door of Ma Liu's house, I saw that two red lanterns had been hung on the porch, and the word "horse" was written on them. There is also a plaque on the lintel that reads "Horse House".
Jinyao, are you married?
Just by looking at the plaque and lantern, you know that today's Ma Liu is no longer what it used to be. This means that his family's life is exquisite, and he also has a head and face in Anji City.
Su Jinyao motioned for A-Ning to step forward and knock on the door, and someone quickly answered. The person who came out to open the door was a woman in her thirties, dressed very cleanly, but she was stunned for a moment when she saw A-Ning. "Who is the girl looking for?" ”
Su Jinyao stepped forward and said with a smile: "You are helping Xiaoying take care of the tiger head, right?" I'm Su Jinyao. ”
When Xiaoying was pregnant, Ma Liu found this woman to take care of Xiaoying. Now that this woman is still there, she should have been left to take care of the child.
And now the Ma family is definitely not short of money, and it is also appropriate to hire a few servants.
The woman was also stunned for a moment when she heard Su Jinyao speak, and looked at Su Jinyao again, as if she felt familiar, but she still didn't think about it.
However, although Su Jinyao's clothes were ordinary at this time, her demeanor was completely different, so the woman said politely: "Please come in and sit down, I'll tell my wife." ”
Su Jinyao thanked and entered the gate, just as Xiaoying also came out with the child in her arms, and asked as she walked, "Who?" ”
As a result, when he saw Su Jinyao enter the door, he immediately walked over, put the child into the woman's arms, grabbed Su Jinyao with both hands, and said, "Jinyao, you're back!" I, I didn't think it was you. ”
Su Jinyao smiled and shook Xiaoying's hand back, and said, "Yes, I just entered the city, so let's come to your house first." Is Brother Ma back? ”
"I haven't been back yet. It's very busy at the end of the month and the beginning of the month. After speaking, Xiaoying said again: "I'm actually busy usually, and I can't take care of my family." ”
Although this sounds like a complaint, I can hear the expectations and praise for Ma Liu from Xiaoying's tone, as well as the care of his wife.
Su Jinyao said, "Are you complaining about me, the shopkeeper who doesn't care about anything?" Okay, Brother Ma will come back in a while, and I'll give him the processing money. ”
"The salary is a lot, and we just need enough expenses for our small family." Xiaoying looked very content, pulled Su Jinyao inside, and said: "The house is still the same as it was, that is, what was it like when you gave us this house, and what it is now, I don't have time to clean it up." Don't mess up. ”
After speaking, he lowered his voice and asked, "Jin Yao, I heard that you are married, and you are still a famous person in the capital?" ”
Su Jinyao was also stunned when she heard this, thinking that Gu Xuebin seemed to be indeed quite famous in the capital. So he nodded and said, "It's okay, it's an official person." ”
Ma Liu knew the identity of Su Jinyao's crown princess, because Su Jinyao could definitely trust him. After Xiaocheng'er came back, he also had a lot of intersection and contact with Ma Liu, and this matter was also clarified.
Jinmei and Ziruo also knew the identity of Su Jinyao's crown princess, because the two of them were already Su Jinyao's right-hand men.
Even Miss Ming shouldn't know, and Su Jinyao wasn't ready to tell her. It's not that I can't believe it, it's not that I dislike Miss Ming's identity, but it's not that time yet.
Now it seems that Su Jinyao's identity Ma Liu is also hidden from Xiaoying.
It's not that Ma Liuxin can't be his daughter-in-law, it must be that he thinks Xiaoying's ability to accept it is not strong, and Su Jinyao suddenly became the crown princess, and this kind of thing is really not acceptable to everyone.
Of course it is
Su Jinyao didn't want to make a noise, she didn't have the intention of showing off when she returned to her hometown.
Although everyone in the world knows about the prince's wedding, people only know that the princess is the second lady of the Gu family, called "Guya".
But this is very good, Xiaoying and Su Jinyao are still so affectionate, holding hands when they speak, there is no separation between each other.
A-Ning is a very quiet person, Su Jinyao talks to someone, as long as there is no threat, she follows quietly on the side, she really wants to be a shadow.
After entering the house, A-Ning put down the things Su Jinyao had bought.
Su Jinyao said: "I bought snacks and clothes for the child, and I also bought you a few small accessories." However, I came in a hurry, and I didn't bring anything from the capital, so I bought it in this city. Don't be suspicious. ”
Xiaoying said: "It's good to come back, what else to buy." ”
Then he took Su Jinyao's hand and sat on the two chairs next to him, and looked Su Jinyao up and down again, his eyes full of concern.
After looking at it for a while, Xiaoying asked, "Jinyao, how long have you been married?" I've only heard that it's a happy event in the spring, but I haven't seen anyone say a letter of approval. The capital is so far away, and I, a woman with a child, can't even go and say congratulations to you. ”
Su Jinyao didn't say the specific day, because people with a little bit of brains knew that it was the prince's wedding. She also said that she was holding a happy event in the capital, which was no different from putting it bluntly.
Therefore, Su Jinyao just said: "It's been almost a month since we got married." This is not a return to save relatives, it can be regarded as a return to the door. ”
"What about you man? Didn't you come back with you? Xiaoying said and looked out the door. However, she also knew that there were only two people here: Su Jinyao and A Ning.
Su Jinyao said: "He is also busy, there are still important matters in the capital, send me outside the city and leave first." Next time, next time I'll come back, I'll bring him over and sit down. ”
"Oh, you don't need to, that's the big man of officialdom, so he's naturally very busy. We, a small family, are embarrassed to entertain him. Xiaoying said, looked at Su Jinyao's face again, and said, "Jinyao, is your man good to you?" Are you still used to it after getting married? ”
"He's fine." Su Jinyao saw another trace of hesitation in Xiaoying's eyes, and then thought of Xiaoying's words in her heart, and asked with a smile: "Xiaoying, do you think that if I marry in the capital, I may be a concubine for an old and ugly official master?" ”
"No, no, no." Xiaoying hurriedly waved her hand and said, "I heard Ma Liu say, you are married to a good family, and you are still the wife of Ming Media." Ma Liu also said, let me really have a chance to see you, and I can't be polite, and I have to be a little respectful. But I just wondered if you were still Jinyao, even if your man was really a big official, but if you really came back, I could still see you, which proves that you haven't changed at all, and I won't make those false etiquette numbers. ”
Su Jinyao nodded and said, "That's really right, I'm still that Jinyao." After speaking, he asked: "But you haven't said it yet, do you think my man is an old man?" ”
"Not old, not young. People who can be big officials in the capital......" Xiaoying thought about it, and then suddenly slapped her head again, and said, "It's not right." Jin Yao, your vision and mind are so high, if you weren't for the good man of the dragon and phoenix in your person, you would definitely not be able to look down on you. Right? ”
Ma Liu was out of order
Xiaoying looked at Su Jinyao and smiled, and then guessed: "Your man should really have the ability, he won the champion at a young age and became a big official." So he is neither old nor ugly, and he is still a handsome young man. ”
After listening to Xiaoying's words, Su Jinyao laughed with a "flutter". She could see that Xiaoying really cared about her, not guessing to ridicule her.
Su Jinyao said, "Yes, that's right. He is really not old or ugly, and he is very handsome. However, he did not win the top prize, but had a good family background. ”
Gu Xuebin was born in the emperor's family, which is a real first-class family background. Su Jinyao didn't lie about this.
When Xiaoying heard Su Jinyao say this, the hesitation and worry in her eyes disappeared. She knew that Su Jinyao was married to a talented, good-looking, and well-known man, and she was also relieved.
Su Jinyao said again: "Actually, we have known each other since childhood, and he has accompanied me to Anji City. It's just that we didn't make a noise at that time, so the people who met him didn't have much of an impression. ”
Xiaoying smiled, pinched Su Jinyao's hand, and said, "You, don't say it earlier, let me see how good it is early." ”
Su Jinyao asked again: "How is the old man in the family?" Do you need me to go over and give them a look and prescribe a few more prescriptions to recuperate? ”
Xiaoying said, "No, the old people are not here." At the end of last year, Brother Ma Liuge bought a few acres of land, built a cropyard, and settled my mother-in-law and Uncle Ma. This is their wish, saying that they are old and old, and they like quiet pastoral days. We can't help it, Ma Liuge also found two long-term workers and a mother-in-law to serve over there. ”
Su Jinyao said: "It is enough for you to have filial piety, and you can do whatever the old man wants." It's not that you have to stay by their side all day long, even if it's filial piety. It all depends on one's own mind, and what is in one's heart is filial piety, not something that must be done for others to see. ”
Xiaoying nodded and said, "Brother Ma said the same thing, so I agreed to send the second elder away." But we often go over and see that everything we need is ready. I also hired a doctor in Anhetang and went to see them regularly. ”
It is indeed a matter of heart to treat the elderly like this. Thinking about the past, when Ma Liu was still a gangster, the third uncle of the Ma family was lying in bed and was about to die.
Later, this day was really different, and the old people were all blessed, which was good.
As she was talking, the woman who opened the door for Su Jinyao came in again and said to Xiaoying, "Madam, the master is back." ”
Xiaoying hurriedly got up, nodded at Su Jinyao and went out.
Su Jinyao also stood up, but she stood still and didn't go out.
Then, Ma Liu came in with the child in his arms, kissing the child's face while talking to Xiaoying. Then he was stunned when he saw Su Jinyao.
Xiaoying smiled and said, "Be surprised." I deliberately didn't tell you that Jinyao was here. ”
It could be seen that Ma Liu's face was indeed full of surprise. But it may also be because Su Jinyao's identity is different, and she is a little overwhelmed.
Su Jinyao smiled and said, "What's the matter, doesn't Brother Ma know me?" I'll be at your house as soon as I get back. I haven't even been back to my own house. ”
Ma Liu came back to his senses at this time, handed over the child to the woman, and asked her to take the child down, while pushing Xiaoying, and said, "Why did the master come here for a long time, and I didn't see you make a cup of tea?" Go for it. ”
Xiaoying suddenly looked at the empty table and said, "Yes, I just cared about talking, and I forgot to pour a glass of water for Jinyao to drink." With that, he hurried away again.
Su Jinyao originally wanted to say, "Don't bother." But when I thought about it, I couldn't drink a glass of water at home, but I seemed to see the outside, so I didn't say anything.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Xiaoying went out, Ma Liu rushed forward to kneel down for Su Jinyao.
Su Jinyao hurriedly came over to help and said, "Brother Ma, are you going to see me outside, or do you have the intention to squeeze me?" Or is it a sign of respect for me that you have taken out this false courtesy? ”
"No, no, no." Ma Liu was also a little embarrassed, he didn't get used to the fact that Su Jinyao suddenly appeared in front of him for a while.
If someone had told Ma Liuyi before, maybe he could have given him a chance to prepare mentally. Now when I suddenly see it, I am a little panicked.
If this were the former Ma Liu, he would naturally not have so many scruples. But now Ma Liu's business is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more people to meet with officials.
Ma Liu is no longer the original gangster who is not afraid of tigers when he was a newborn calf, but understands the truth that the official level crushes people to death. Therefore, he has a sense of awe for a person like Su Jinyao who is at the top of power.
Su Jinyao motioned for Ma Liu to sit down and said, "Brother Ma Liu, don't be so polite. Don't let Xiaoying have a gap in her heart, I still have a lot of love when I talk to her. ”
Ma Liu nodded, but it was obvious that he was on pins and needles.
Su Jinyao smiled helplessly and said, "If Brother Ma is always so nervous, then I won't say anything else today." Anyway, I've seen your family, and I'm relieved to know that you're all good. Tomorrow you will come to my jasmine garden with your account book, and you will not be so restrained if we take business seriously. ”
Although Su Jinyao said this, she didn't want Ma Liu to do that.
Even if they are superiors and subordinates, Su Jinyao is the master, and Ma Liu is an employee, but it is much more comfortable than getting along with each other in such a sincere and fearful way.
Ma Liu is also a smart person, but after calming down for a while, he understood what Su Jinyao meant. He also secretly cheered himself up in his heart, telling himself that Su Jinyao in front of him was still the original resolute and far-sighted Jinyao.
